Doto (mythology) explained

In Greek mythology, Doto (Ancient Greek: Δωτὼ means 'giver'^[1]) was one of the 50 Nereids, sea-nymph daughters of the "Old Man of the Sea" Nereus and the Oceanid Doris.^{[2] [3]}

Mythology

Doto, together with Panope and Galatea, escorted her sister Thetis out of the sea to her wedding with Peleus.^[4] Later on, Doto and her other sisters appeared to Thetis when she cries out in sympathy for the grief of Achilles for his slain friend Patroclus.^[5]
